after 3 hours at 888Poker a new series of tournaments begins ... it seems to me that this series of tournaments compares favorably with the previous series of tournaments .... because now every win there is a ticket worth $ 5 .... it’s much more interesting than winning a few cents for a not very high place ... and now 600 first players will have such a win ... now I have three tickets for these tournaments ... I was given one ticket for me just like that ... And 2 tickets I won at the Wheel spin

Thanks for this Pajalnick. I hadn't realised that 888 had so significantly changed the payout structure for this promotion. This looks a much better deal than the previous one where top 2880 get from 2 cents or something. I aim to use my free tickets wisely and do my best to get into the top 600 on each occasion.

Since it is a freeroll and 888poker is a big site, with many players, the tournaments must be crawling with participants And if you have a few thousand players in, is not easy to reach even that 600 paid places. But the value of the ticket is a good one, and if you manage to win one, you can get a good win out of it.

Two days ago i received a ticket and today i won another at wheel of fortune. I played the tournament today for a $ 5 Blast ticket and blinds was at 3 minutes with 12,580 players and many players play chess. In this way you have the minimum chances to win a ticket. I do not like this promotion.

I hate when they do this, i get a ticket for a tournament, that in sted of cash they give more tickets, and on the next tournament you also get another ticket, commmeee ooooonnn man when does it stop, all i have noticed this year and the better part of last year, is that P oker sites really dont want to give away any money, compared to the good old days from years back when they would give you their house and their wife just to make you play on their site
There were really a lot of players in this tournament because all 888poker players were given out tickets for playing blast tournaments .... last night after seeing that more than 10,000 people had already registered in this tournament, I decided to postpone the game for today ... given that tickets all players will be used should be a bit ... and maybe a chance to win

Yesterday i played two tournaments and surprise... in the second game. I catch QQ after 2-3 hands and i push all in. A villain call with T 4 different colors and after flop 4 and on the river another 4 . I will not win any tickets to these tournaments. At least i have this impression. If i win, i will let you know.

I did not win any tickets in this lucky blast tournament. The software is not generous with me and i played almost every day twice. I liked more $ 3000 pokerfreeroll roulette even if the awards are lower. 888poker has all kinds of freerolls but unfortunately not all are so enjoyable...

Depends on what you are looking for. You cant win money on this one, but with the tickets, which have a very good value, since they are 5 USD ones, you can end up making a good payout. And i doubt that someone can complain about 888pojer and freerolls. It is a site that we see here, that has one promotion after another with freerolls. You should be glad for it, either way

I'm not happy with all the promotions, bonuses and freeroll games because some of them are not that good. You can not accept everything they offer. I like some things here but not all. Some are beautiful, others are acceptable and others ugly.

Cant say you got lucky with the spin of it. Could have been lots more with a 5 USD ticket, but at the end it was a freebie, and you managed to make a good profit out of it. I guess it is harder to win the ticket for that lucky blast, than winning money with the ticket Congratulations and better luck next time.

This Lucky Blast Tournaments is a cheap illusion. Since it was introduced, i have not even won a single ticket and i play 10 games or more. It's too absurd and i have no confidence in this moments. I liked more tickets for 3000 freeroll.

Man , I played too many times these tournaments with some free tickets that I got , I could play every day , threw the chance out of the window , easy to get the blast tickets for others , not easy for me Not even one I didn't win . I really have to get better at poker , better at shove/fold circumstances , a good shove-fold chart to study would be optimal to begin with

It's not easy and it's a waste of time with this Lucky Blast. So you can win some tickets, the software should help you, because without his help, you will not succeed to win tickets. At certain times, your game no longer depends on your abilities. You have to be lucky or you will not win, because that's what the software decides.

I dont understand, why you keep saying that a freeroll is a waste of time, over and over again. Ayes it is not easy to win, once there are many players in, but some tournaments worth your time either way. \And a bright example is demodawggy, where as you can see in his post above, managed to win some cash out of it...

In every day in 888poker you have a daily roulette. There you can win different prizes or nothing. All the tickets won by me for Blast Tournaments were with wheel of fortune and that roulette forces me to play these freerolls. You refuse this awards?
Not even one I didn't win .
